Chapter 109 The Women's Rescue Association Appears
~
In the art troupe
"Yingxue, someone's looking for you outside." Zheng Duoyan ran in from outside and approached Su Yingxue with a mysterious look on her face. "Guess who it is?"
Seeing her so confused, Su Yingxue asked, "Who is it?"
Zheng Duoyan smiled and teased, "Your Prince Charming!"
Prince Charming?
The entire art troupe knew that she had only ever liked Qin Zongwu.
Could it be Qin Zongwu?
After realizing this, Su Yingxue was surprised for a moment, but soon felt that it was impossible, so she scolded Zheng Duoyan, "Don't talk nonsense, I don't have any Prince Charming. Tell me, who is it?"
"Haha, you'll know if you go out and take a look."
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Su Yingxue stood up and walked out with a puzzled look on her face. It wasn't until she saw Qin Zongwu's back that Su Yingxue felt a little surprised.
"Brigade Commander Qin?"
Qin Zongwu's appearance is so outstanding, with a straight and tall body, handsome eyebrows and eyes, and a cold and aloof feeling that keeps strangers away. Wearing a military uniform, he is simply a uniform temptation.
The more amazed Su Yingxue's eyes were, the deeper the regret in her heart.
Qin Zongwu turned around and saw Su Yingxue coming out. His brows instantly turned cold. "Su Yingxue, please go and apologize to Comrade Ruan Zhao!"
When Su Yingxue saw his expression, the infatuated look on her face froze instantly, replaced by a look of confusion. "Brigade Commander Qin, what do you mean by that? Why should I apologize to Ruan Zhao?"
Qin Zongwu's voice was cold, "You were the one who spread the rumors outside, weren't you?"
When Su Yingxue realized what he was talking about, she felt guilty for a moment. "I don't understand what you are saying."
"I don't understand?" Qin Zongwu narrowed his eyes. "Su Yingxue, you spread the private affairs between Ruan Zhao and me, causing everyone to misunderstand that Comrade Ruan Zhao has bad conduct. Don't you know what kind of trouble it will cause her if the Women's Rescue Association investigates?"
Su Yingxue was stunned for a second.
When Lin Xiaomei asked her cousin to spread the news, she added fuel to the fire.
But she just wanted to publicize their relationship at the time and never said that Ruan Zhao had any improper conduct.
"I do not have……"
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Qin Zongwu again. "Su Yingxue, I don't care what your intentions are, but Ruan Zhao is my wife, and I won't allow anyone to hurt her!
I can let you go this time, but if it happens again, I will go straight to Chief of Staff Su!"
After Qin Zongwu finished speaking, he turned around and left.
"I..." Su Yingxue wanted to say something, but Qin Zongwu had already walked away.
Her words were stuck in her throat, almost suffocating her.
"Ah, I'm pissed off!"
After all, Su Yingxue was a spoiled young lady who grew up in a pampered environment. She had never been threatened like this before, and by the man she liked. She was so angry that she pinched her waist and turned around several times on the spot.
Finally, she suddenly thought of something, her eyes darkened, and she stopped.
Humph, how dare you treat her like this...
It was not until Su Yingxue returned to the art troupe and asked for leave from the army that Qin Zongwu walked out from not far behind her.
Watching Su Yingxue walk towards the family compound, Qin Zong's eyes moved, and he turned and walked towards the military district office...

Ruan Zhao, feeling down, watched a group of old men fishing for nearly an hour by the creek south of the family compound. Only after he had completely calmed down did he turn around and head back to the compound.
By the time she returned to the family compound, it was already 5:30 in the afternoon.
As soon as Ruan Zhao entered the alley, he saw a group of women outside his gate, chattering about something.
One of the women's eyes lit up when she saw Ruan Zhao coming over, "She's back."
Upon hearing this, Cao Shuhua, the women's director, immediately pushed her way through the crowd and stepped out. "She's finally back! Hurry up and bring her here! Don't let her get away!"
As soon as she finished speaking, two women came running towards Ruan Zhao.
Ruan Zhao had already guessed the identities of these people.
But she didn't expect that these people from the Women's Rescue Association would come so quickly.
The woman named Cao Xiaoyun is Cao Shuhua's cousin and also the deputy director of the Women's Rescue Association.
She ran up to Ruan Zhao, pinched her waist and asked fiercely, "You are Ruan Zhao, right?"
Ruan Zhao glanced at her darkened brows, raised his brows slightly, and then replied calmly, "Yes."
"That's it!" Cao Xiaoyun said, grabbing Ruan Zhao's arm and saying, "Come with me."
Ruan Zhao did not resist and was dragged to Cao Shuhua by her.
"Director, she is Brigade Commander Qin's wife, Ruan Zhao."
Cao Shuhua looked Ruan Zhao up and down, a flicker of disgust evident in her eyes. "She looks so effeminate, no wonder she's unfaithful to her husband!"
"Director Cao, you must provide evidence when you speak. Comrade Ruan Zhao is the family member of a combat hero. You have no evidence, so why are you slandering her?" As soon as Wu Chunyan spoke, Ruan Zhao realized that she was being held by two people and standing behind Cao Shuhua and others.
Cao Shuhua heard Wu Chunyan's words and snapped. "Hmph! What family of a combat hero? She and Brigade Commander Qin don't even have a marriage certificate. How can they be considered family?"
"You guys should keep an eye on her. She's in cahoots with Ruan Zhao. She might have had a hand in all the things Ruan Zhao did!"
Ruan Zhao didn't expect this group of women to be so fierce. If they were only targeting her, she wouldn't be so angry.
Seeing Wu Chunyan being implicated by him, Ruan Zhao frowned and walked over to grab the wrist of the woman holding Wu Chunyan. "Aren't you looking for me? Don't involve others!"
The woman was about to open her mouth to scold Ruan Zhao when she felt a sharp pain in her wrist. "Ah! It hurts, it hurts, help!"
Cao Shuhua immediately shouted, "What are you doing? Are you trying to be a counter-revolutionary?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Chunyan quickly grabbed Ruan Zhao's hand and gave her a worried look. "Zhao Zhao, please let her go. I'm fine. They can't do anything to me."
The label of counter-revolution is too broad. If it is really put on Ruan Zhao's head, no matter how powerful Ruan Zhao is, he will not be able to fight against the people!
Ruan Zhao understood what Wu Chunyan meant, hesitated for a moment, then loosened his grip and let her go.
As soon as she let go, two women came up and grabbed Ruan Zhao. "Behave yourself! If you dare to..."
Ruan Zhao glared at the woman, scaring her so much that she immediately choked back the words.
Knowing he couldn't force these people, Ruan Zhao suppressed his anger and looked at Cao Shuhua. "Director Cao, what crime have I committed?"
When Cao Shuhua saw Ruan Zhao finally speak, his expression grew even more ferocious. "What crime? Ruan Zhao, you're living with Brigade Commander Qin before you're married. That's actually a hooligan act."
You are still relying on your skin to hook up with men and have promiscuous relationships. You are totally shameless!
Brigade Commander Qin has been deceived by you, but we won't be!"
Ruan Zhao's eyes glared, and he asked coldly, "Where's the evidence?"
Cao Shuhua laughed sarcastically, "Humph, I knew you wouldn't admit it!
We at the Women's Association won't wrongly accuse anyone without any reason. If there's no evidence, would we come to your door?"
Cao Shuhua said this, turning around and waving his hand. "Call them over."
As soon as Cao Shuhua finished speaking, Lin Xiaomei walked in from behind.
Ruan Zhao narrowed his eyes and finally understood how this incident happened today.
Lin Xiaomei glanced at Ruan Zhao with a guilty look before calling out to Cao Shuhua. "Director Cao."
Cao Shuhua said directly, "Comrade Lin, tell us about what Ruan Zhao did."
Lin Xiaomei lowered her head, a little timid. "I..."
Cao Shuhua thought she was scared. "Don't be afraid. It's the duty of every citizen to eradicate this bad atmosphere in society. Just keep talking. No one dares to do anything to you!"
Lin Xiaomei then raised her head and said, "I... I'm a nurse at the military hospital. A few days ago, when I was following the troops to the mountains for an exercise, I saw Comrade Ruan Zhao and an officer getting very close. At the time, I thought they were having an affair, so I didn't take it seriously.
It wasn't until this morning when I saw her go to see a male doctor in our hospital again that I felt something was wrong.
Later I asked around and found out that she already had a family and was with several gay men..."
After Lin Xiaomei finished speaking, she lowered her head again.
Cao Shuhua looked at Ruan Zhao and said, "Ruan Zhao, you have been having affairs with several men, and you're still hanging around Brigade Commander Qin and living in his house.
Not only is this promiscuous, but it's also deceiving a war hero. It's even worse than being a hooligan, and you still refuse to admit it!"
